Pharmaceutical Industry in india - An Overview

The pharmaceutical industry in India was valued at an estimated US$42 billion in 2021. India is
the world's third largest provider of generic medicines by volume, with a 20% share of total global
pharmaceutical exports. It is also the largest vaccine supplier in the world by volume, accounting
for more than 50% of all vaccines manufactured in the world. With industry standards compliant
mega production capabilities and large number of skilled domestic workforce, Indian exports meet
the standards and requirements of highly regulated markets of USA, UK, European Union and
Canada

As of 2021, most of pharmaceuticals made in India are low cost generic drug which comprise most
of pharmaceutical export of India. Patented medicines are imported. APIs are imported from China
(60% supplies by volume worth US$2.4 billion) and Germany (US$1.6 billion) as well as from
US, Italy and Singapore.

OVER VIEW

As of 2002, over 20,000 registered drug-manufacturers in India sold $9 billion worth of


formulations and bulk drugs. 85% of these formulations were sold in India while over 60% of the
bulk drugs were exported, mostly to the United States and to Russia.

Most of the players in the market are small-to-medium enterprises; 250 of the largest companies
control 70% of the Indian market. Thanks to the 1970 Patent Act, multinationals represent only
35% of the market, down from 70% thirty years ago

Most pharma companies operating in India, even the multinationals, employ Indians almost
exclusively from the lowest ranks to high-level management.

Homegrown pharmaceuticals, like many other businesses in India, are often a mix of public and
private enterprise.

Government intervention
The Indian government established the Department of Biotechnology in 1986 under the Ministry
of Science and Technology, there have been a number of dispensations offered by both the central
government and various states to encourage the growth of the industry. India's science minister

4
launched a program that provides tax incentives and grants for biotech start-ups and firms seeking
to expand and establishes the Biotechnology Parks Society of India to support ten biotech parks
by 2010. Previously limited to rodents, animal testing was expanded to include large animals as
part of the minister's initiative.

The biotechnology sector faces some major challenges in its quest for growth. Chief among them
is a lack of funding, particularly for firms that are just starting out. The most likely sources of
funds are government grants and venture capital, which Incentives for R&D, product development
and high-value production

Government of India has launched a Production Linked Incentive (PLI) Scheme for
Pharmaceuticals with provision for disbursal of US$2 billion or INR 15,000 crore government
incentives, which will run from 2020-21 to 2028-29, to reduce import dependence, benefit
domestic manufacturers, boost product diversification and innovation for development of complex
and high-tech products especially in in vitro diagnostic devices and emerging technologies
especially in cell based or gene therapy, employment generation and production of wide range of
lower cost affordable medicines for consumers with the aim to achieve incremental sales of US$4
billion or INR 294,000 crore and incremental exports of US$2.7 billion or INR 196,000 crore
between 2022-23 to 2027-28.

Manufacture of API supplies in India

To eliminate the dependence on China after the 2017 China-India border standoff to foster an
Atmanirbhar Bharat, in July 2021 India's Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR)
initiated a Make in India program in collaboration with the coal and petroleum industries of India
to end-to-end manufacture 56 prioritised active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) for the In 2016-
17, China was the largest supplier of API to India with 66% share by volume of API raw material
supplies to India worth US$2.4 billion or INR 18,000 crore, followed by US$1.6 billion API
imported from Germany, the US, Italy and Singapore are other major suppliers to India.
h is a relatively young industry in India.

Foreign investment

Per India's Consolidated FDI Policy, 2020 (the "FDI Policy"), foreign direct investment ("FDI")
in the pharmaceutical sector in greenfield (new) projects is permitted up to 100% without the

5
approval of the Department of Pharmaceuticals (the "DOP"). In brownfield (existing) projects,
FDI exceeding 74% requires the investor to seek prior approval from the DoP in compliance with
the prescribed conditions under the FDI Policy.

Separately, FDI up to 100% is permitted for the manufacturing of medical devices for both
greenfield and brownfield projects without the approval of the DoP

An FDI approval from the DoP can be obtained within a period of ten to twelve weeks from the
date of the application, depending on the completeness of the documentation submitted by the
investor in support of the application, failing which, this timeline could vary.

2. To release or reject
 Each batch of raw material
 Semi finished/finished products
 Packing & labeling material
3. To evaluate the conditions under goods are store.
4. To evaluate the quality & stability of product.
5. To establish and revise control procedure and specifications.

Procedure for Quality Control: Step involved are:-


1. Raw Material Analysis: - After recording raw material in store division in store division
quality control dept is called for sampling for testing its quality and purity as per
pharmacopoeias. Where the raw material stand in its quality. The quality control passes the raw
material for production. For inspection two sample from each of tablet, capsule and liquid
section are selected. One is meant for testing and another one is for storage. As the sample
reaches the quality control lab, it is recorded in the SAS register and a sampling slip is put in the
sample.
2. In Process Control: There is a real and significant difference between a finished product
compounding standard and the manufacturingFor quality assurance the sample size usually taken
as:-
A. 40 Tablet (min.)
B. 2 Liquid preparation (sealed) C. 2 Sterilized preparation (sealed)
D. 40 Capsules
E. 2 Powder preparations (packed)

27
Under in process control the sample is collected from immediately processed bulk, The process
of sending sample to quality control is very burdensome. So in order to case this process,
convenient equipment is available in the mfg. dept. near to the site or activity.

1. Electronic balance for testing weight variation.


2. Hardness tester (Tablets)
3. Measuring Cylinder - To measure volume of liquid preparation.
4. Inspection chamber-To inspect antiforeigner particle or turbidity in solution.
5. D.T. Machine
6. Friabilator

The immediate recording of result is made in register is made in register with other information
e.g. name of the product, Batch No., Date, time etc. process.

Method used to check the quality


1. Electronic method
2. Solvent Extraction Method
3. Spectrophotometer Method
4. Chromatographic Method

Program adopted for observing GMP and to build quality of the product
There are many tests that are used for quality assurance of various formulations as:-

(A) For Tablets

From manufacturing batch of tablets 30-40 tablets are sent Q.C. to test them for-

1. Weight Variation: A tablet must contain the proper amount of drugs. For testing weight
variation a sample of 10 tablets are taken hourly and weighted on electronic or physical balance.
The tablets must have acceptable average weight.

28
2. Friability Testing: This is an internal standard test. This test is essentials for consumer
acceptance. Tablets require certain amount of strength to withstand mechanism shocks on
handling packing, and shipping.

3. Hardness testing:- Hardness testing determines the cursing strength of tablets. To check the
hardness the tablet is placed between two finger of tester both horizontally and vertically and
force is applied. The hardness of tablet must not be less than 4 kg, and not more than 6 kg.

4. Disintegration time: This is the time on which breakdown of tablet in GIT occurs. To test
D.T. a disintegration test apparatus is used that is set as per pharmacopeias. Starch paste is
employed as disintegrating agent who may draw water in to the tablet, causing tablet to swell and
burst apart. There are internal standards for D.T. i.e. 15minutes. If tablet disintegrates within 10
minutes then the batch of tablet is contained otherwise batch is cancelled.

5. Dissolution time: As the tablet break down in small particles it should offer a grater surface
area to the dissolved media. Dissolution apparatus is a 8 paddled machine and temperature, speed
and time can be adjusted.
6. Strip leakage test: - To test whether the strips are leak-proof or not.

(B) For Capsules

1. Weight Variation: A sample of 10 tablets is hourly taken and average weight is taken. Then
each capsule is weighted individually and compared with average weight.
Not content less then 300mg Not content more then 300mg 7.5 10%
2. Dissolution time: Same as for tablet
3. Disintegration time: Same as for tablets

(C) Sterile Preparation

1. Clarity test
2. Sterility test

29
RECORD MAINTENANCE IN Q.C.:-

For record maintenance in Q.C. there are separate recording registers, having columns for the
name, batch No, date & result for the product being analyzed e.g.:-
 One register for in process control analysis
 One register for raw material analysis
 One register for finished and packed product analysis

Daily entry is made to avoid any error. A part form this, for incoming of reagent in Q.C. another
record is maintained.

MICROBIOLOGICAL ANALYSIS: It include following instruments-

 Hot air oven


 Autoclave
 Incubator
 Aseptic room

CONCLUSION

Thus at the end I have reach at conclusion that during my one month training in VIBGYOR
LABORATORIES (INDIA) I have understand the environment of industry and how much
company's staff do the hard work in the production of such a bulk number of product and how
one can cope with the problem while working. A pharmaceutical manufacturing unit is placed
where not only been best possible formulation are prepared to serve the social surrounding but
also industrial training program carried out to prepare technically skilled manufacturing chemist
and analysts
In this industry both the above two functions are carried out under the supervision of well skilled
experienced and technical persons with complete attention and honesty that improves not only
the growth profile of industry but also produce best chemist and analysts in future
I wish for a sharp growth profile of the industry in the coming days and I also admire it to be one
of the best places for producing better chemists and analysts beyond the formulation
My opinion about industry is best places are occasionally been noted by someone this is one of
them noted by me
I like the environment, staffs and head of departments and heartily wish to work with them ever when an
opportunity is given to me
